Let's take PyPI numbers as a proxy.  There are ~8000 packages with a
"Programming Language::Python" classifier.  There are ~250 with "Programming
Langauge::Python::3".  Roughly speaking, we can say that is 3% of Python
code which has been ported so far.  Python 3.0 was released at the end of
2008, so people have had roughly 2 years to port, which comes up with 1.5%
per year.
Just my two cents:

Just one further informational note about using pypi in this way for
statistics... In the porting work we've done within Fedora, I've noticed
that a lot of packages are python3 ready or even officially support python3
but the language classifier on pypi does not reflect this.  Here's just
a few since I looked them up when working on the python porting wiki pages:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Beaker/
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pycairo
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/docutils

If you could (successfully) encourage the authors of such packages to update their PyPI classifiers, I and other Python 3 users would greatly appreciate it. That is aside from having better data for this and similar discussions.
